Victoria said she was inundated with kind messages following the happy news but revealed that some followers had sent her vile messages about her weight.
Victoria said she was aware that her figure would change after “crazy trolls” pointed out that she would get “fat”.
She posted a sweet photo alongside husband of 11-years James and said: “Well you lovely lot… thank you.
“Your words, support and stories shared have meant the absolute world to us.
“We’ve read and smiled and are trying our best to like or reply to everyone who took a minute out of their day to send us some love.
“Truly, every last one of you… you’re all just amazing. Apart from the crazy trolls & keyboard warriors… there’s always a few. Yes I will get fat, but thanks for letting me know!”
Victoria went onto explain that she was cautious and “scared” about going public with her pregnancy.
“Truth be told, I was really nervous to share our news, so scared I’d jinx it… but I’m so glad I did,” she continued.
“Because you get it. The worry. Even if you’ve never known the heart break of a lost baby, the ‘what if’ with any pregnancy is always there.
“One lady messaged me that her fear was there ‘with every wipe of a wee’.
“And I’m nodding along – Yes – exactly that – you’ve been there too… and it really was like a big virtual hug.”
The couple revealed they had been trying to expand their brood for three years.
James – who appeared on the most recent series of Strictly – and Victoria are already parents to Edward, aged eight, Louis, six, and Hugo, three.
Alongside a picture of their baby scan, the couple opened up about their struggle to get pregnant again – and expressed surprise it happened amid James’ Strictly schedule.

Victoria added that her biggest worry now is the size of her boobs.
She joked: “As well as trying to put to the back of my mind that I have to fit into a wedding dress in a week! Seriously, my boobs! They’re massive!”
